Often instead I will "bread" pork chops n chicken in a bag of Dry Onion Soup Mix or Grill Mates seasoning (very light or mouth will be on fire) Why arent there any whole wheat bread crumbs?

Calories - Who figured that one out???
I'm just sitting here pondering; HOW do they measure how many calories are in any particular unit of food? I feel a bit stupid. Perhaps I'm the only person in the world who doesn't know how that's done but I'd really like to know. :huh:

For vegetarian/vegan eyes only!
Ok, just kidding, you carnivores are allowed to read these articles too, but it won't help you as much as will help us :) I found these articles, and while they're focused on cycling, they're definately applicable to all types of athletics.
